East End Art while you eat

Enjoy great art and even better coffee at Chicchi, a new type of café open on roman road in bow.

Local artists display their work while customers can eat and drink the traditional Italian cuisine.

Traditional staples like lasagne always prove popular, but owner Alfonso also makes a good trade from panini and deli sandwiches.

The artwork he displays comes from local talent. They represent a rich tapestry of talent that can be found in the East End and diners that like paintings can be put in touch with the artists to buy them.

More of the café’s specialities include white tea imported fresh from China and various other Japanese varieties.
